Boho Summer



( Thrifted rose-print dress, H&M hat, Steve Madden "Madhouse" boots )

Happy Summer, dolls! Celebrated the first weekend of the summer with this dress that I've been waiting to wear for about 4 months now. I thrifted it from Salvation Army and it was actually a maxi dress. I hacked off half of it since I thought it would look cuter. I'm excited for this summer! Lots of sunsets, BBQs, and ice treats! (:

Sunflower Child

I'm so happy that 4th of July is tomorrow! I get to relax tonight & take it easy tomorrow. I've decided to start on a DIY that I've been putting on hold, with my mom helping me out too! But here's an outfit that I wore over the weekend. I absolutely love flower crowns / headbands. When I saw this at Forever21 for just $1.50 I caved and got it.

Recent Haul / New clothes

As usual, all I do is go shopping. This is a mixture of thrifted and mainstream items that I got throughout the month of May. There's a lot more, but I'm way too lazy to go look for them. My room is in the process of re-organization at the moment. I'm getting a new closet also which hasn't been assembled yet so all my clothes are resting in garbage bags for now. God-forbid someone accidentally thinks it's trash and throws it out :x I think i'll go stick post-its on them before that tragedy actually happens.

Neon/Pastel: Hot pink laced tank top from Forever21 | Mint sheer top from New York & Company

Lightweight: Thrifted polyester button-down tops from Salvation Army

Shorts: Striped from Forever 21 | Cheetah print from Forever21 | GAP 1969 mustard jeans DIY'd into scalloped shorts

Cotton/Soft Fabrics: Grey/black shirt from Forever21 | BDG v-neck from Urban Outfitters | thrifted H&M striped shirt from Salvation Army

Floral: thrifted Kimono from Salvation Army

Printed Pattern: thrifted maxi/midi skirt from Salvation Army

More prints: hand-me-down floral and leopard print button-downs from my Aunt

H&M everything



(  H&M harem pants, black cardigan, gold collar necklace, & taupe suede flats )

I didn't even realize almost the entire outfit was from H&M. The black bag was a thrift from Salvation Army for like $2 (score!) I've had these black harem pants for over a year now. I bought them last spring for $20 and by gosh, that was the best investment ever. Harem pants are so comfortable and versatile. They go well with flats, heels, and boots. If you don't have a pair of these yet I suggest you go out and get them while they're still available in spring colors like pastel tangerine, taupe, and mint!

THRIFTS

I went to Salvation Army last friday and another thrift place the saturday before. These are only a few of what I got. The rest are mostly coats and jackets which I've already stored so I didn't bother to take them out for photos. Three of the items pictured below I got from Salvation Army last friday when all pink tags were 50% off. Luckily, all the items that I fell inlove with were pink tags and my total for all 3 was only $7.50!

Light pink polyester top: originally $5.99, 50% off - $2.99
 Men's forest green blazer by Brooks Brother (super huge on me but perfect for layering.)
 Black oversized polyester top: orginally $3.99, 50% off - $1.99
 Printed polyester top: originally $4.99, 50% off - $2.49
 close up detail, similar to prints on silk scarves
 oversized beige knitted cardigan, similar to the fisherman cardigan from Urban Outfitters that cost $69 (so happy to find this!)
 floral printed top
 Dark blue-green button-down polyester top (thick material for winter! yayy!)
